The right hand side of the door canvas/velcro will not reach to close ???
Is this from shrinkage....its better if i open the window, but still not great. Any one else have this problem?

I'd suggest repositioning the tenting - slide it back toward the door.
On occasion, pulling the bed out, especially without properly adjusting the material around the corner of the bed, causes the tenting to be pulled away from the door. Persuading it back helps, lowering the roof a tad might help.

Thank you coach...we have been having a problem with the tenting on one side of the door. REALLY hard to attach the velcro to door frame, like they skimped on the tenting.  Now I know what to do, give it a good tug and see if the door installs easier.
Thanks again. :#

My problem is simular to this. Because it is so tight i cannot get the velcro to stick. I purchased a roll of ductape that matches the canvas and mounted canvas to door frame.. All it good...  I will try adjusting canvas though.

Try attaching it to the door first then put up the bunk ends that might help.

It was always harder to attach to the door when it was cold, on our two popups. If it was warm/hot day, there was enough material.

The plastic/rubber that slides into bottom track was torn and the canvas had moved to the left.....undid the screw that holds it sewed it up and pulled it back to the door......re screwed it and ta da! it fits....thanks all!
